13.9. Trivial make distAfter some testing, you may decide it's time to share your work with friends and associates. To do this, make a single distribution file. Many mechanisms are available to do this, but the most common one on most modern Unix platforms is the GNU gzip compressed tar archive, commonly named with a .tar.gz or .tgz extension. Again, with a simple make invocation (make dist), you end up with the required file: $ make dist rm -rf Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01 /usr/local/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Manifest=manicopy,maniread" \ -e "manicopy(maniread( ),'Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01', 'best');" mkdir Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01 mkdir Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/t tar cvf Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01.tar Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01 Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/ Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/Changes Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/Makefile.PL Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/MANIFEST Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/Maps.pm Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/README Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/t/ Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01/t/1.t rm -rf Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01 gzip --best Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01.tar Now there's a file named Island-Plotting-Maps-0.01.tar.gz in the directory. The version number in the name comes from the module's $VERSION variable.[91]
